Transcript – eviti Introduction

Eduardo Beruff, CEO & President, eviti, Inc. “eviti is our ground-breaking, electronic, decision- support platform that is used at the moment of clinical prescribing by physicians to ensure that their election of cancer care is the most appropriate for the patient.”

William Flood, MD, Chief Medical Officer, eviti, Inc.”eviti is a web-based computer program that combines into it information from the patients insurance plan, information put in from the physician regarding the patient’s illness, the specifics of their cancer diagnosis, and it is supported by our evidenced-based library, so that when a physician enters a patient into eviti, we show them in a menu the specific treatments that are evidenced-based for that particular patient’s care, and we link that information directly to the insurer’s or the health plan’s specific plan and policy language, so that the payer knows that the care on that menu right away is up to date and is considered state of the art by our peers in the oncology community, and they know how the payer is going to handle it in terms of reimbursement.”

Robert Comis, MD, Chairman, eviti, Inc. “From the beginning we developed a very strong medical advisory board. So the conscience of the organization is really in the hands of true experts in medical oncology and cancer research, and they are the guarantors of the approach that we take.”

Paul Gilman, MD, Oncologist. “I think that it really provides not just simply a way for assuring reimbursement, but really, I think it provides an important tool to a practicing oncologist that makes patient care more effective, more efficient, and more appropriate.”

Arlene A. Forastiere, MD, Senior Vice President, Medical Affairs, eviti, Inc.; Chair “This is the beauty of eviti and this whole system. Payers certainly want to make sure they’re paying for the right treatment. Basically, we want to make sure that the patient gets the right treatment. And we want to make sure that the physician is getting reimbursed for making the right treatment decision. It’s as simple as that.”
